I like how alberu knows how cale operates. Like everybody seems to be assuming that cale is righteous and his morale compass is definetely "good", but alberu knows thats not the case. Its not so bad that everyone thinks so, i feel like it will be the running gag throrough the whole series, but i was hoping for at least someone to have an idea that cale is always strategizing and his intentions are not purely good.
Cale is kind, yes. But he is not righteous
I REALLY hope alberu does not change his view of cale, from someone who always has ulterior motives to a lawful good person
I think the reason Ralsei doesn't turn to stone in other dark worlds might not be because he's created by the Grand Fountain. I think...
...It's because belonging is at the very core of who he is. Kris wants more than almost anything else to belong, to fit in and not be an outcast. But to do that, they would have to discard everything that makes them themself. Ralsei is what Kris wants to be, but not in the way you might think. Kris wants to belong, and Ralsei is who they would have to be in order to belong.
He's a goat, like the rest of Kris's family. He's smart, polite, helpful, does whatever you ask him, and lets you walk all over him. He doesn't treat himself like a person. Everyone's always asking, why can't you be more like your brother? And now you are. And that's what Ralsei is.
The people in the light world would take him for granted, just assume he's happy, and not wonder how he really feels. Fortunately, however, Ralsei's friends are Kris and Susie. They're not like the rest of hometown. They just want him to be himself and learn and grow with them. They just want to be his friends.
Let me be clear: Ralsei is his own person. He's only just starting to figure out who he is, beyond what I've described above.
I just hope we can be friends with everyone some day.
Have you guys ever noticed that all of Kim Rok Soo’s abilities that are revealed are related to time?
Record: Allows KRS to have perfect recollection of the past
Instant: Being able to move beyond human limitations in the present
I wonder if his other abilities are also related to time. Maybe he has one that is related to the future.
Cale is pretty shameless.
If he was told by the GoD that he could get 1 billion gallons if he kissed one of his companions, he wouldn’t blush. No. He would start bartering.
“Only a billion gallons? The Crown Prince has offered me more for less. You’re a god, live up to the name. 30 billion for a kiss on the cheek. I’ll even do a knuckle kiss for 20 billion if you feel cheap.”
The Sun God pitches in. “50 billion gallons for a kiss on the lips.”
Cale turns it down immediately. “You think my first kiss is only worth 50 billion gallons? You must think you’re funny. You couldn’t afford my first kiss with your whole religion.”
The GoD interrupts. “85 billion gallons and a heavenly item.”
He clicks his tongue, do they think he’s stupid? “A heavenly item would only draw more attention to me. I want to be a slacker. Use your head.”
Both gods curse. They can’t let him become a slacker, it would ruin everything.
After a minute of thinking, the GoD and the Sun God come to a conclusion. They’re going to cut their losses and take what they can get. “Okay, we’ll buy a kiss on the cheek for 30 billion gallons.”
Cale makes eye contact with them. “50 billion.”
The gods cry out in indignation, but Cale refuses to budge on this.
With a look of defeat, they split the cost and tell him to pick someone to kiss on the cheek.
He chooses Raon. The dragon is very happy with the sudden display of affection, and the gods curse the name Cale Henituse.
hi, so... um... who is "megabird"? I was going trough your blog and saw it mentioned a lot of times. At first I thought that it was just a meme, but apparently it's not??? I'm new to the fandom, so sorry for dumb questions, and sorry if this has been answered before...
please don’t worry it isn’t a dumb question! megabird is only mentioned by name in tom zhao’s concept art, but long story short, she’s basically a divine entity of the flame and the creator of sky kids. (putting a read more in case this gets long, and of course, game spoilers ahead)
so she’s a god in charge of the reincarnation cycle of light creatures, including sky kids. her presence isn’t restricted to the concept art, of course; we see the megabird in the wind vanes in the prairie bird’s nest as well as the prairie temple entrance, and a popular speculation is that megabird is the one narrating at the beginning of sky (the whole fall of the stars and “if only they had listened” spiel describing the destruction of the sky kingdom).
in the concept art above, the holy site refers to the eye of eden, so it’s pretty safe to say we fly into megabird during the orbit sequence.
probably the most important bits of megabird lore come from the concept art timeline, though. it’s a bit hard to read because of the low quality, and i might put a transcription in the next ask for anyone curious, but i’ll just take the bits related to megabird and type them below:
Fire Era
- All souls are part of the Megabird. Each soul cycles through the Human and the Sky. World gathers experience before returning to Megabird. We are all one and one is us all.
- Megabird grants flame to Prince and Creatures.
- Megabird is at her strongest and all life is connected by light.
- Both Ancients and Creatures worship the fire, migrating to the holy land to die and be reborn.
Dark Stone Era
- The Ancients enter a golden age and the Prince is crowned King. However, dark matter begins to corrupt the Prince and Ancestors.
- Ancients become indifferent and disconnected from the Megabird. The Ferryman Ancestor (Isle Elder) retires with no new souls to shepherd.
Post Storm Era (after the Sky Kingdom is destroyed)
- In dismay, Megabird blesses the sky Kingdom with a new Descendant race (sky kids) in the hope that they will reconnect all souls.
it’s important to note that lore stated in concept art is not necessarily canon, but there are plenty of safe assumptions we can make based on what’s in game that are basically accepted as fanon. megabird is indeed meme’d though. if you ever hop into the official sky discord’s lore channel, you might see her get called megan or described as a bunch of noodles because of her appearance. i also personally like joking that any mysterious source of light in the sky (such as the sun) is megabird. hope this helped :]
